This thread is about the appreciation of watches, as well as the micro-engineering and materials engineering that are required to make a fine watch, clock, or other timepiece.

I think I owe myself my first Rolex. Thinking of either one of these. I also like the Rhodium but it looks pretty plain in person compared to the blue.
Have you considered the Milgauss? Certainly more unique if you csre about that sort of thing

You're a fucking tool holy shit.

Who makes cheap artsy watches? I'd get a Swatch but they're a bit too juvenile. Is Mondaine or Daniel Wellington good? I'm into that graphic design aesthetic
Here's mine. I took it to do some manual labor few times but side from that one scratch, the crystal is still looking pretty good. Have this one around a year now.
my watch keeps stopping at the same point, like the seconds is getting stuck? If I give it a swing, or pull out the crown and put it back in, it starts moving again. Any ideas?

Is there an SNK809 with kanji day wheel?
Noah Barnes
yeah, throw it in the bin

If I was getting my first Rolex I wouldn't get either of those. Datejust / DayDate / Sub / GMT would be my choices.

What the fuck is this thread? Who the hell still uses a watch??! Not even hipsters I think. Wearing a watch in 2018 is akin to bringing a crossbow to work. It's embarrassing. Inconvenient. It just shows how far you've fallen behind times. >b-but what about smart watches Those are even worse, because anyone into tech knows they're worthless and serve no real function.
Jewlery that is socially accepted for men to wear (northern europe):
>watches Yes preferred, majority wears it
>necklaces Accepted, as long as it's not of precious metals and other shiny materials (should be a leather strap with something simple), but very few above 25 wears any.
>bracelets Accepted in many social groups, like hipsters or the likes. Few above 25 will be wearing any, and the overall majority will not be using any.
>rings Only accepted in some odd social groups (wedding rings being the obvious exception). By the majority this is not accepted.
>earrings and piercings Not at all, except in some odd social groups. By the majority this is not accepted.

You have shit taste but the Seamaster is the only one somewhat worth the $3500.
The rest are severely overpriced.
Also never buy a Speedmaster profesional new.

Not totally imperceptible.
>bezel pip isn't quite right >SEL fitment is bad >finishing on hour markers and hands isn't great >dial is too light a shade of black >the "gold" on the dial for the printing has less depth than the real one
I'm not making any of it up. That is what is socially acceptable, at least in Scandinavia. In my post I tried to make it short with generalizations, so it's not meant to be interpretated as firm rules or anything. And obviously some people will see it differently. But that is the general take of how acceptable those jewleries are for men to be wearing in Scandinavia.

I find them really boring. I think I view of blue watches died with those awful 90s seamasters which looked like hot garbage.
Tyler Sullivan
I guess we are all different. Which colors on dials do you prefer?
Jace Kelly
blue is ugly as shit
Wyatt Campbell
Same question to you
Nathan Allen
Wrong post?
Jason Price
Black seems to be my most common choice. And white or pale gold for dress watches.
